525hp LS3-Powered 1964 Corvette Sting Ray by Ares Design
This 1964 Corvette Sting Ray restomod, crafted by Ares Design in Italy, blends the iconic C2 design with modern technology. The build retains the original fiberglass body with subtle modernizations like LED headlights and bespoke wheels. Inside, the car features premium red leather upholstery, modern A/C, retro-style gauges, and a high-end audio system. Ares Design fabricated a new chassis with C7 sourced axles, refined suspension, and high-performance brakes for enhanced handling. Power comes from a 525hp rebuilt LS3 engine, mated to a five-speed manual, maintaining the car's American soul while vastly improving its performance.
